"One of the most important things at school that I learned was the level of professionalism. One of the best things at school was the fact that we were able to eat all the food that we prepared, the development of my palate started at school and was habit I would never break, I eat everything. All the instructors provided ample information with excitement." (Tony Marzo – Culinary Arts)- Tony Marzo
